ATSM, HLS Anything Goes with Dies, Less Is More, Seize The Birthday, Time Out


Hi everyone, the theme at Less Is More this week is "Take Flight" and here's what I made.

I die-cut the butterfly out of Yupo card and painted it with glass and prism effect paints, and glitter medium and heat embossed the sentiment in gold. The shine and sparkle of these paints is a little hard to see in a photo. It was interesting to watch how they run and blend together!

I wanted to do another card too for this challenge but I've run out of time again, grrrrr!

Playing along at FIVE challenges:
Addicted to Stamps and More - Photo Inspiration
Less Is More - Take Flight
Seize the Birthday - Anything Goes
Time Out Challenges - Inspired by Words (flying)
'Paint The Flying Spirit Of The Birds Rather than its Feathers'

Thank you for stopping by!
